Sorry is not enough. I try to express that. I wonder do you hear the heartache in my words or do they fall on deafened ears These truths of mine alone do you believe them You have been told so many lies I thought I was saving you from pain. Poisoned lies that belonged not to be felt by you and your innocence though that was ruined prematurely I was not willing to fuel that fire sadly I did light the match and added kindling without intent I thought I was protecting you saving you from some of the gore I’m left to wonder if I caused more harm than good. My soul aches with every beat for every lost moment Stabbed with every ignored plea and unanswered message I can do no more to change that allthough I will keep trying I can only hope that from the ruins one day a sprout will immerse I will care for it tenderly but not overshadow it and with every truth I pray it may grow.

Silence is not golden
